LONDON: British High Commissioner (HC), Adam Thomson has said that UK police have received countless complaints against Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain’s remarks about detaching Karachi from Pakistan, Geo News reported. In a statement, the British HC said Pakistan should take serious notice of Altaf Hussain’s statement. He further said that strict laws are followed in Britain against hate speech and inciting violence, adding the UK police is currently investigating Altaf’s speech. He added that if anyone is found guilty, the accused can face imprisonment.
 
However, the MQM Chief Altaf Hussain has already denied demanding separation of Karachi from Pakistan. Adam, however, said that there was no extradition treaty signed between Pakistan and Britain but added that taking action against Altaf Hussain was not out of the question. Adam Thomson termed the recent elections in Pakistan as historic, saying the people subjected the governments to accountability through ballot. However, he said that there should be a proper investigation into the allegations of rigging in the polls.
